I find it very off-putting to my drawing. In Illustrator and Inkscape it is possible to draw freely without constant selection marks appearing after every stroke of the pen.
We have certain registration marks that we use on our designs before we print to vellum. How to be able to write a macro that could do the following? I've attached an example image of where we place the registration marks and am also attaching the actual registration mark CDR file. I'm assuming this would probably be rather simple...
We'd like this registration mark to be centered to the image and placed on the top and bottom of the image at .25 inches away from the image itself. So, I would think the macro would have to select the entire image on the page, then decide where .25 inches is away from the top and bottom of the image and place the registration mark, centered in that area.
I am so confused with bleed marks for printers. Here is my example.
I am designing a postcard that is 8.5 x 3.66. I set my page size in the layout section to 8.5 x 3.66. In that layout section it also has a bleed button. I check it and type in .125 in. (what the printer requires.
So it adds a dotted line outside . which i understand. Here is my question. When I save as PDF, only the 8.5x3.66 saves and not the bleed area. I need the printer to see the bleed area. They also want crop marks.
When I step & repeat the crop marks are not there. How I get the crop marks for cutting multi up items.

View 3 Replies View RelatedImage below, what I want to do is remove the parts of the red logo below the black line. normally I would use the virtual segment delete tool. this is working with the red outer line, but not on the letters. rather than removing the part of the letter below the line, it is removing the whole letter. Also it is leaving a square edge on the line, and not removing it on an angle.

From my vecor drawing program i export a file as DXF/DWG.
Then this file is run true a program to determinaded the plotting lenght on a lasercutter.
But a simple drawing takes som 80 minutes to cut and engrave.
Loading the file into X5 Home & Student is discover that the file contains 29059 lines.

How can i remove them without using VBA. And my drawing program has no option to save it to a file type.

I have just installed my old CorelDRAW X4 on a Windows 7 X64 computer, and want to work on text within a rectangle. When I try to draw a marquee round the text to move it, the rectangle moves instead (it has no fill).

View 2 Replies View RelatedHave created a customised label equivalent to Avery L6008 - very small labels 7 across and 27 labels down. Prints perfectly. However, I would like to be able to vary the design and print different labels across the 7 columns. Either at the creation stage - use the template and select which column is utilised or at the printing stage restrict the printing to 1 column only. Does this make sense?
These are for some Geocaching buddies who want their own name on the labels and a full sheet of 189 labels is too much.
I'm using Corel X3 graphics. Windows Vista. HP officejet pro 8500a premium printer. I'm trying to print a file I used to print all the time. It's a map with bitmaps. I must have accidently changed some settings in CDX3 because now it prints too large--it won't even fit on the page. I've tried changing every print setting that relates...Fit to Page, etc. I also restarted corel while holding down the F8 key to reset the factory defaults. I've re-installed Corel 3 times! I'm at my wits end.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI am using X4 for use in my dye sublimation business. I have an image that was provided to me from my customer. I created a template in Coreldraw, sized the photo to fit and power clipped it into the template. I than created the text the customer wanted and placed it over the image. I than grouped everything together and printed the image. When it prints, the only thing that prints is the template border and the text. I than took the same template and text and power clipped a completely different image into it. Sent it to the printer and voila, no problem.
The image the customer sent to me is a .jpg image. I don't understand why it won't print. Is it possible there is some sort of code or something within the image that is preventing it from printing ? It sounds far fetched to me but I had to ask. If I export the completed image as seen on the screen to a Jpeg and view it on the screen, the powerclipped background is there.
file type: channeled .eps file created in photoshop (my 'goto' for screenprinting seps)
system: windows 7, coreldraw x6
problem: once imported into CorelDraw, in the print dialog the pre flight will analyze the document and it takes forever; if it does not crash, once completed every other function takes forever to edit (Ex: to deselect a spot color will take 15-20 seconds to implement)- then when printing, errors occur.
1) previous versions of Coreldraw does not have this problem
2) this happens with all printers, even pdf print driver.
3) workaround that works: save the channeled eps file as a Photoshop file.
I do not understand the process to print my document on A3 printer.My document is a small A5 booklet of 8 pages . My layout options are as follows. Map folds Side 105 x 148.5 Binding left.CorelDraw on my desk I have a document giving the property the following 210 x 297 min (A4). When I send my document to print on A3 printer (HP 2800 pcl), I end up with four pages on the first fold of my A3 though logically I should end up with two pages per folds.So what is the right method for this type of work?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am creating a brochure in X3 and when I do a test print one of the layers is not printing. Although I have actively used layers in Autocad, I don't mess with them much in CorelDraw. However I do move objects from front to back and vice versa.
When I started having this problem I went to the object properties to see if the layer was turned on. It was. I don't know if it is related but when I do a print preview the whole program becomes uncharacteristically unstable and shuts down.
I cannot get the printer to print in landscape since we loaded X5.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen you extract everything from a powerclip, the object that was the powerclip retains it's powerclip state. The biggest problem is when it no longer has any contents, that big X appears across the object to show that it's an empty powerclip. OK, I can deal with that or ignore it, but the problem is, the thing acts like it's part of the object as far as printing goes, and that I can't have. This can't be the way it was originally intended to work? Shouldn't it be just an on-screen indicator, and not a physical part of the object now? I know I can revert the object back to a "normal" object, but it seems to be just another useless step that shouldn't be needed.
What I'd like to see is an option that when a powerclip no longer has any objects inside, it automatically reverts to a normal object like in previous versions of Draw. Of course, it's too late now, that will never happen. If anything, it should be possible to have the empty powerclip X indicator be changed over to a "phantom" object that is only shown on screen and doesn't exist in any other way so that it doesn't print or otherwise effect the drawing.
Great, it shows up in PDFs too. Looks like I'll have to get used to hitting that "No Frame" button every time I hit the "Extract Contents" button. Or maybe I'll write a macro to do both and link it to a toolbar button. Reminds me of a post I made about Corel Script in version 6 (yes, six, not sixteen) where it allowed us to write our own "feature" fixes when options were removed for no good reason.
I'm printing booklets for our inhouse marketing and to do so (because of the printer I'm using), I have to send the document in reverse order (last page to first page).
I have to print from a PDF and this changes to colours... I don't see anything in Corel I can check so it's done automatically.
I have a question regarding printing labels. I just want to print labels, for example, in row 3 and 4. I managed to print 1, 2 rows (and then rotate the paper :), how can I print just rows 3 and 4 ? And then just row 5, for example? There is an option imposition in layout which should correct that, but I can't find it? How to set this things? Is even an option for that?

View 2 Replies View RelatedWe are just in the process of setting up Corel X6 for deployment in our office and we are trying to get a handle on the colour settings. We have upgraded from CD11 which had very little in the way of colour management and so we are somewhat inexperienced in how to set up.
We have two production printers an OKI 821 and a Ricoh C820DN which we print to using PCL drivers. We believe that we therefore need to use RGB as our colour mode and use an ICC profile for each printer for colour correction with colour management switched off on the driver. Is this correct? We've had a try this afternoon and the colours on the prints differ greatly from the display (which has been profiled using an xrite i1pro calibrator). They also differ from each other.
The monitor profile is set as the device profile in the windows colour system, and we are using that as our engine in corel.
